A bit dramatic..
It’s a 20ish minute drive to downtown worcester from Rutland and both those areas have fine plow service.

We're not neighbors, but close. Fwiw I ran my address through FiOS availability checker this evening.
It said fios was coming within the next few weeks. I hope so! Id share the screenshot if reddit would allow me.

Yeah but what is there to do in Rutland? You cant compare a city to a suburb like Rutland

Will look into this. I feel like either way it should be an option.

Yes, but you're missing out on so much else. If you want to do literally anything else - grocery shopping, culture, nightlife, restaurants - have fun spending just as much time in the car as you do at the event. Add to that a regular commute for work, from an area that doesn't have sufficient highway access. And don't forget less reliable public services (including snowplows).
There are folks that hate "city life" and love being self-reliant and set apart from the rest of the world. I am not one of those people.

Rutland and Princeton are both pretty rural arent they? I dont think its a fair comparison to Worcester

I spoke with a team working on Marcy St in early September, the lead told me FIOS was coming to my block within a few months. Who knows how accurate that is…

We used Seven Hills Roofing to replace part of our roof that had damage from an ice dam. They did a great job and charged just under 2K (it was about 20-25% of the roof).

The phone is actually still pinging to the home currently.
I emailed the landlord and owner of the property for assistance. NO police or questions asked, just data that needs to be reached.

If you want decent Internet service, get involved with the committee that is investigating municipal broadband.

Reply to Could anyone please help me find a realtor? by [deleted]
Heather Carbone with Acres Away was unbelievably helpful. So attentive and really listened to everything we had to say. We were first time homebuyers and she made the experience so simple and really fought for us for everything. Super knowledgeable too. Cannot recommend highly enough.

Paxton is literally immediately outside Worcester, has excellent infrastructure and public services for its size, and access to a premium school district.
